Non-volatile memory systems, such as those formed from NAND flash memory chips, typically include one or more controller chips connected to multiple memory chips. In some cases, such as in solid state drives (SSDs), the number of memory chips can be quite large. For example, with a NAND density of 128 Gb, or 16 GB, a 8 TB SSD drive with 100% over-provision (redundancy) would have 1024 NAND chips. If the system has 16 input/output (IO) channels, each channel has 64 NAND chips. The capacitive pin loading load of NAND chips impose limitations on system clock operation frequency to ensure signal integrity as the drivers may not be able to handle the cumulative load. Because of this, it is a challenge to push data transfer rates to higher frequencies.
